Randy Orton Update

Monday June 2, 2008
Randy Orton suffered a broken left collarbone during his match against Triple H last night. Randy has been plagued by shoulder injuries throughout his wrestling career because he was born with hypermobile shoulders. It remains to be seen how long this injury will keep him out of action. I wish him the best of luck in his recovery and hope that he can come back soon.

My question now is, who remains to be the main heel in Raw now? With orton out of the picture, I just don’t see JBL in this role… Kennedy is being turned into a face now, Umaga is too boring… and I’ve been sitting waiting for Batista’s turn for 3 months already. Who else is out there? Who could come from Smackdown or EC-Dub?

It looks like there won’t be a main event heel at the moment. I think that the Triple H/Cena feud that started last night will go through SummerSlam.

The best in the wrestling business is John Cena, next is Babtista and also triple H
And what about the big show? I like him too.
I wish I could talk to Vince McMahon. Vince has to make sure to get the undertaker back in the ring, and he has to get the best manager back the black ballheaded nice guy I don.t know his name but he certainly is a nice man and he keeps the spirit alive. He also must kick out this stupid woman Vickie Gurere, this girl manager will bring down the wwe into oblivion. Edge and her are sickening.

I think Edge is the best heel remaining in the WWE right now. Cena would make a better one, but the Cena/James angle seems to ensure that Cena will be a face for some time.

That leaves what I see to be an inevitable Triple H heel turn. Triple H really is the best heel in the game and has been for a long time. I like him as a face, but he is a much better heel.

I would really be entertained by an evil Triple H and Shawn Michaels combination.
It seems like they would both rather be faces right now, but I’m sure they would both “take one for the team” if Vince asked them to.

Maybe they could add Batista to the mix and reunite with Ric Flair as their heel manager. I really don’t see anyone there right now who would produce more compelling main events as a heel. And I bet Flair would be happy to come back as long as he didn’t have to beat up his body anymore.

(6) Brandy Cole says:

Im glad Vickie got a job and Vince is good to her after the Eddie situation but I cannot stand her in her roll. Nor Edge. But I guess htat means theyre doin right since theyre heels. I loooove Teddy Long. Holla. Hunter could fill the main heel roll easily.
Randy was wanting the summer off since his baby girl is due, so I guess he got that.

Both McMahon’s in the hospital damage done by Randy Orton. That guy makes me puke, he can’t wrestle or he needs his 2 buddy’s. untill Orton is totally gone from WWE I will not watch wrestling. Also, get uncivilized Chris Cherico out of the picture. he has about 4 the best retired wrestle hall of famers kicked to the ground and belittled them as garbaged, Vince McMahon should have the guts to step in here and kick those 2 guys out. There are all kinds of wrestlers that people will enjoy and a hell of a lot better wrestlers too.
